Enrico Rava Quintet: Tribe
by Ian Patterson
Trumpeter Enrico Rava has enjoyed a sustained late-career, creative high since returning to ECM with Easy Living (ECM, 2004) after an absence of 20 years.

Ci sono musicisti che hanno ormai il sapore dei classici. Enrico Rava è uno di questi. Quando metti nel lettore un suo CD, sai già cosa ti puoi aspettare. Ma questo, lungi dal creare nell'ascoltatore il fenomeno del déjà-vu, lo porta immediatamente in una “zona di conforto”. Lo porta dentro una delicata melodia, con un suono ...
